Vegan Cabbage Soup

This vegan cabbage soup is super healthy, hearty and extremely tasty! Packed with loads of delicious veggies and heaps of flavor.

This vegan cabbage soup is so tasty that it was all my husband wanted to eat for days on end while we were testing this recipe.

I mean, considering how much rich and delicious food we make for the blog on a daily basis, the fact that Jaye was gobbling up this soup with sheer delight tells you how tasty it is.

It’s super healthy but so tasty that it feels like a treat to eat it. It’s also just a little spicy and makes a wonderful appetizer or main course.

Ingredients You Need To Make It:

Ingredient Notes

• Chopped tomato – we used regular canned chopped tomato in this recipe. You can also use fire roasted chopped tomatoes to add even more flavor.
• Olive oil – if you want to make this soup oil-free then you can leave out the olive oil and just sauté the onions in some vegetable stock or water.
• Cayenne pepper – gives this soup its spicy kick! It’s really delicious but if you aren’t a fan of spicy foods then you can reduce it or omit it entirely.
• Vegetable stock – or broth. If you use a low sodium variety then you will need to add extra salt to compensate.
• White beans – we used canned white beans, also called cannellini beans. You can use these or pretty much any canned beans that you have on hand.

How To Make Vegan Cabbage Soup

You will find full instructions and measurements in the recipe card at the bottom of the post. This is a summary of the process to go along with the process photos.

• Add chopped onion and olive oil to a pot and sauté until the onions are softened.

• Add crushed garlic, dried oregano, dried thyme, smoked paprika and cayenne pepper and sauté with the onions for a minute or so until toasted.

• Add chopped carrots, celery, cabbage and white beans and toss together with the onions and spices.

• Add chopped tomato and vegetable stock and mix in. Bring to a simmer.

• Reduce the heat, cover the pot and leave to simmer until the veggies are soft and cooked. Add salt and pepper to taste.

How To Serve Cabbage Soup

This soup is totally delicious served on its own. But to me a soup isn’t complete without some bread on the side. So serve it with some crusty bread on the side for dipping. If you’re feeling industrious then make a loaf of homemade bread and serve it fresh and warm from the oven alongside your soup.

Our delicious whole wheat bread or the easiest white bread would both be awesome choices. Some vegan garlic bread would be delicious too if you want something a bit richer.

Some fresh parsley sprinkled on top is also great.

Storing and Freezing

Keep leftovers stored in the fridge for 3-4 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stove.

It’s also freezer friendly for 3 months. Let it cool completely before freezing. Thaw in the fridge and then reheat on the stove.
